wood in the am to take the chill off and the pm to keep the heater from going on overnight.

lots of yard work.

it's nice to clean the place up, and to see it clean.

i don't mind raking, but thank goodness for my backpack blower.

[Smoke]

Yea, turned stove off last night and it’s freezing in here now!

Raining so it’s chilly/damp

N'orEaster for the next couple of days.

nasty n'orEaster.

large tree blown down, took out our power and cable including internet for a few days.

tree fell across our access way, so we couldn't get a vehicle in or out for over two days.

power company said to stay away from the fallen tree until they could come out and move the wires away.

possible that if neighbor(s) generator not hooked up right then power feedback ...

so we got out our games and puzzles and kept the home fires burning.

made the fridge into an icebox, filling containers with snow.

worked well.

plenty of exercise doing this and that.

got the chain saws running, although there's a good story there.

power back two days ago.

cable guy was here yesterday from 7 pm to 10 pm running new wire from the street to the house, about 50 yards.

today almost finished grounds clean up.

quite a mess.

Wow, winter went out like a lion.

Glad you’re back up and running.

Great tool to have picked up…” How to improvise “
Feel sorry for the next generation, they haven’t got a clue.

got the second injection into the eye yesterday.

not as bad as it sounds.

there have been great advances in treatment of wet macular degeneration in the past 10 years or so.

so there is hope.

otherwise i'll lose every golf ball i hit to my left.

we've been away to visit with the granddaughter.

she's just 6.

babysitting a 6 year old is lots of varied exercise.

they are only 150 miles or so south, but what a difference in Spring.

we went to Laurel Ridge Farm in Ct to see the daffodils.

wonderful.

too many doctor's appointments.

they now say that it seems that i did have that heart attack a while back.

or so says the latest EKG.

the old jalopy continues to break down, bit by bit.

now wearing a 7 day heart monitor.

and now my medical vocabulary includes Electrophysiology.

but i'm not dead yet, so i'm still getting my daily exercise in.

if i don't do the stretch, mat, and ball work my lower back gets very sore, with stabbing pains.

[Smoke]

Good reason to keep doing it!

Got busy at work so not much time for working out… or even getting out.

Busy is a good thing though!
